This has taken nearly six years- one day each week- one problem, setback and challenge after another... But the love for the car enabled me to get to this point.
Well worth it...

My 70 Finally Comes home

Finally home...in the garage...one the road. Still have some issues here and there, but having this car out of the shop after all that time is a treat. Home 2.jpgHome 3.jpgHome 4.jpgHome 5.jpgIMG_20130402_145519_463.jpgTips_Plate.jpgYard Visit.jpg

Very nice.
I don't normally agree with the color matched bumpers on the vintage vehicles but yours works nicely.
